Ara ara~, who's the fine lady next to Yuuna on the first page for this chapter? Unless she was introduced earlier and I had forgotten... but still want to know ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
So.....is the cover girl Living Yuuna....or someone else that we might or might not know about?....The "bait" level in the cover is Freaking High...the Mangaka even add in those Heart pupils....
So Tenko Nadare is Miura-sensei(1) version of Fate Averruncus? Well accomplished in everything except that he's but a mere pawn for his family... He despises Kogarashi cause they have the same kind of Gift, but pattern a: thinks Kogarashi uses it in a despicable manner (2.1) or b: Envies the freedom he never got since he shouldered his family burden since earlier (2.2)...
So Haojiro is practically the author stand-in... She knows that the most important thing about a shounen power system is about verossimilarity (3) but don't seem to have the right mind to make it work... How it should work: You give some rules, you follow these rules... What we got: Power armor does everything in the most convenient way possible...

Ps.: Someone is familiar with that say about "the best authors are the ones that know how to comply and how to betray their readers expectations?"
(1) It's just tricky when you already have a well established Miura Kentaro working out there...
(2.1)
Fate still is some steps above cause what bound him was destiny and the LifeMaker designs... Everything he did was a Batman gambit to save Mars... while killing half of it... who knows what they still have stored within the Tenko family?
(2.2)
Probably something related with Tamamo no Mae or even this manga version of Kurama... You are never done with foxes until a Kyuubi no Kitsune look alike reveal nowadays...
(3) Maybe I'm overthinking her tentative at explaining the "barrier logic" back in page 10...
@mrponeis I like your comparison between Nadare and Fate from Mahou Sensei Negima. They are much alike. That is why I think they could make him a future friendly rival to Kogarashi. It would be cool to have a male partner in battle for the protagonist. Nonetheless I could get through this arc better if wasn't for the children transformed girls and Kogarashi.
